[NDOM]

LOL!!!!! This is Charlie Weis all over again.

 

[WabashFalcon]

Sigh...

 

[NDFANnSouthWest]

damn we need a blue chip FS....

 

[WabashFalcon]

Don't say that NDOM.




Sigh.

Alright boys, shutting down the computer, gonna start drinking and don't want to post that way!

Hope we pull this out.

Onside kick to start the 2nd half?

What I'm pissed about is that Kelly tried to have his cake and eat it too.


If he wants to score, he needs to be chucking it all three downs.


He didn't and tried to run down the clock. Rolling out, even to Jerry Rice, can lead to a drop, thus killing the clock.


Stupid game managment right there just gave them 3.

Completely agree. Try to score or try to run down the clock.. one or the other. Can't do both.

 

[IrishJayhawk]

The problem, I think, is that Dayne has only been taking snaps in this offense for about 2 months. He's making some bad reads and some bad throws...mixed in with some great throws.

This is why it would have been nice to reverse the order of the schedule.

Kelly's not that dumb.

 

[WabashFalcon]

Awesome. BC just got shut out so they are going to be massivly pissed off next week.

 

[bert2834]

Kelly's not that dumb.

Your probably right, but it would a sweet if they did it and it worked.

 

[FightingIrishLover7]

Those three points are all on Kelly. We should only be down 7. And with the O doing close to nothing....




Stupid. Just stupid.

Play call was bad.

Rudolph should have caught that ball though.

 

[NDinNJ]

That was a very tough half of football to watch. I find it amazing that we are only down by 10. Hopefully we can stop them to start the second half and get a quick score. Falcon, I think we need some rally porn!

 

[WabashFalcon]

Sigh. Just... just sigh.

 

[NDFANnSouthWest]

fellas this is going to be a journey- speaking of getting the program back to winning. Seems like the team has the "hangover" from the last 4 years....

The tale of two O's...lets see who showes up in the second half.

 

[IrishJayhawk]

This is a darn good Stanford team. The passing game is extremely crisp. And with no pressure, the timing routes are very impressive.

We need a few big plays.

Exactly...

Throw, throw, throw! I don't know if he's coaching the same game I'm watching, but WE CAN'T RUN THE BALL RIGHT NOW!!

What makes him think that 1:21 left in the half is a good time to try again?

 

[Riddickulous]

BC and Pitt are vulnerable, at least. 8 wins would be fantastic given how bad this football team actually is.

 

[GDomer09]

AA is not an explosive back & seeing how this is his senior year, he never will be. He's gone after this year. I want Gray Wood. lol

 

[footballinsiders]

Giving up the 3 points at the end of the half could end up costing us in the end. I am scratching my head with how the end of the half ended.

 

[Nothingman]

Ruffer looks great, 7 of 7 to start the year. Trying to remain positive.

Except neither of them has made a successful blitz pick-up in their lives.

 

[WabashFalcon]

And.... we're (almost) back.

 

[IrishJayhawk]

UCLA 20 - Texas 3

 

[condoms SUCk]

FYI UCLA just scored UCLA 20 Texas 3

Too true!

 

[theclassickiller]

We passed on 3 points at the end of the half vs. Michigan and it potentially costed us in hindsight. Let's hope it doesn't come to that.

 

[Riddickulous]

This will be the indicator.

If we come out in the second half and finish the game with a 25 point loss, then we aren't remotely close to being back.

If we come out and make a game out of it, we're on our way.

 

[IrishJayhawk]

And.... we're (almost) back.

So, you're a coach...knowledgeable football guy.

What's your diagnosis/remedy? Picking up the blitz? Getting pressure? How is it fixed?

Ready...go!

 

[NDinNJ]

I'm most impressed with the Stanford D right now, great pressure. We need to get Dayne some more time back there.

We need a lot of quick slants and screens to counter it.
